Okay, I think there's no need for me to second the quite unhelpful, when it comes to evidence, course of events this far. YesterDay's actions and voting give really too little to chew, toNight's kill however maybe could - at least a little. I would like to maybe stop and dig deeper into it, but for now, there's just one point which I can raise from it, which you can find below.

Knowing you're around and knowing what you think might have led us to another conclusion and maybe... well, maybe we could have voted differently and who knows? But how you performed yesterDay felt sneaky.
However Gwath did explain himself, I'd still appeal on people along the lines of this to actually post during the Day, and give grounds on whom they suspect and why, instead of just appearing at the very DL with "I vote XY". Making a post "I suspect X all of the most, and also maybe Y" does not sure take long, and simply sharing your inner thoughts is a point of this game.

What!!!

I will not even dare guessing at what most of this means. . .
Quite, quite... Not a single word about that. Enough is enough! Howgh (sounds pretty Wargish, actually ).

Actually, I could second that in a way, but, we all know what - Nogrod is just Nogrod. It's just that the image of him laughing evilly after yesterDay's course of events looks pretty possible to me, but that's of course no grounds for real suspicion.

Although there's one thing, I don't belive Nog-wolf would pick Kitanna for a first kill. That'd really testify strongly against him in my eyes. He would pick some quiet one to "punish" him.

I think today's going to be, for me, more about observation (and that's to hope there will be EVERYBODY posting so that I can observe them), also because I am not sure how much time I'd have during the day to post. But I will show around, definitely. Just not that I'd be overflowing the thread.

EDIT: x-ed since last Gwathagor

Actually, I will venture as far as to say just one thing: I wouldn't be surprised at all to find out that Eomer enjoyed our confusion a lot yesterDay and is now writing weirder and weirder narrations just in order to confuse us more and amuse himself...

I wouldn't say that twice - I thought that as well may have been so.

Anyway, as for this anti-Nogrod front, I am really looking forward to see what he says when he sees this...

He seems to be contributing to our confusion as much as the Were Wargs have, I can't make heads or tails out of what he's trying to say in the intro's!

I'll be back later. Right now I need to make dinner before my brothers get back. Happy Were Warg hunting!

EDIT: X'ed with Legate.

You take the words right out of my mouth. I am also eyeing Nogrod with suspicion.

Okay, care to give a more elaborated explaination why? (As the fact that you say you are suspecting somebody without giving grounds is a) not going to help the others at all, as they cannot compare whether you have a point or not, b) may be taken as a mere whim of a wolf to get rid of somebody without any grounds.)

Sorry, Legate, it might be described as sort of "gut feeling", but I'm bad at illustrating my own suspicions.

Okay, at least something. (Be prepared though, that if you use "gut feeling" too often and nothing else for reasoning, you may find yourself being mistrusted soon.)
